Chapter 197

Looking at the mayor that is full of fat figure disappeared, Chen Heng fell into thinking.

According to the rules of the world, if those unfortunate predecessors before him are right, every time outsiders enter, it's time for the trial to begin and the chapter of the devil to open.

However, the omen of the opening of the chapter of the devil is nothing else. It is the growth of demons that begin to appear and attack the people outside.

A person's ultimate achievement, of course, depends on his own efforts, but also depends on the background of the times.

If the people do not suffer, how can they need heroes?

So whenever the trial begins, it must be the time when the demons grow and explode.

Then there is the soil for the brave.

And now, in this case, it's almost time for the devil chapter to open.

Only when the devil recovers, the devil will come out of the forest and attack the people outside.

From this point of view, the devil appeared, the warrior is still far away?

Maybe you don't have to wait for a long time, the time will come for Chen Heng to appear.

Chen Heng thought so in his heart and went to one side thoughtfully.

Next, he also helped the mayor suppress the demons outside.

Of course, he didn't do it himself.

The mercenary regiment, which has spent so much money for such a long time, is not for nothing.

They are usually good to eat and drink, but they are not allowed to be masters.

When it's time to use it.

It's useless for Chen Heng to do it himself. Only those mercenaries can easily block the demons outside the town.

Of course, as for those outside the town, there's nothing I can do to help.

After all, there is a small city wall in the town, which is perfect in all aspects.

There are no such conditions in other places.

As for Chen Heng's words, he didn't appear many times in the whole process. Most of the time, he made a speech, took out some things and distributed them to the refugees.

It's not that he suddenly shows kindness, it's just the need to gain the power of faith.

To obtain the power of belief, we must have a specific goal.

If you don't show up, even if others appreciate you, they don't know which one is their benefactor.

So it's necessary to show up if necessary.

Chen Heng only needs to show up a few times at the critical moment to let others do the fight.

Time goes by slowly.

In a flash, more than half a month passed.

For most of the time, the whole town changed a lot.

There are refugees pouring in all around.

It's amazing to say.

Before the disaster, no one knew that there were so many people living around the town.

These people were originally hidden in every corner of the outside of the town. Many villages are even located on the edge of the dense forest, so it is difficult to find them.

In the past, these villages were very independent. They did nothing except occasionally come to the small town and exchange some commodities in the market.

This time the disaster came, these people all fell blood mold.

Those crazy demons don't recognize people. They kill people when they see them. They can't even tell the truth.

No wonder.

After all, people are demons, and cannibalism is their own business. As for reasoning, it is not within the scope of their application.

As a result, the whole town outside the people poured blood mold, all rushed to the town.

If there are so many people in the town, the mayor of the town will be very happy.

But at this time, he can only look sad.

The reason is simple.

No food.

The local agriculture in the small town is quite good, but in the past, it relied too much on the resources in the dense forest. It was a trading town, and the local agricultural production could only be self-sufficient at most, not rich.

Now the outside world is in such chaos that it is obviously impossible to continue farming. Everyone can only live on their own grain reserves.

Life has been tense, and now a rush of so many people.

People are indeed valuable wealth, but the premise is that they can be used in production.

If you can't just put it there for nothing, it's a waste of food.

That's how it is now.

Farming is obviously impossible to continue.

Most of the victims fled, and their grain reserves were limited.

A small number of victims have reached the bottom.

What happens when people can't fill in their stomachs?

Obviously it's not going to be a good thing.

Because of this, the mayor is very anxious at the moment.

During this period of time, he ran everywhere and became thinner. He looked much thinner than before.

It's a rare thing that it has the effect of losing weight.For the mayor's anxiety, Chen Heng just looked at.

Although he knew that sooner or later the other party would find him here.

But before that, he just watched.

Of course, in the middle of this, he didn't do anything.

Some of the preparations have been made.

Just wait for it to start.

The subsequent development is similar to Chen Heng's idea.

Desperate, the mayor finally found the door.

However, Chen Heng did not speak as well as before this time. He gave something casually.

It's basically the same as everyone else.

But the mayor can't say anything about it.

Now that food is scarce and the price of ordinary wheat is rising, it is unrealistic to expect people to come up with food to fill this hole.

To be able to take out something more or less represents support.

In fact, he didn't want to help the victims in the past. This time, he just came to seek support.

Only with the support of local gangsters and local tyrants can he let go.

And Chen Heng's expression is undoubtedly regarded by him as a statement.

So next, he started to operate.

A large number of small town guards were patrolling around and began to drive out the refugees.

They don't allow the refugees into the town, they want to drive them out.

Even in this process, we have to take away the last thing that others have left.

Around the town, conflicts continue to break out, which is a dispute.

However, the mayor is obviously indifferent to this.

A group of ordinary people who have neither weapons nor food nor organization is nothing to him.

As long as other local forces support him, he is not afraid of anything.

It went on for a while, and a large number of victims were driven out.

Resentment is boiling and fermenting.

Chen Heng is located in his own manor and can feel this unique power.

This is also a force of belief, but it is different from the force of belief he obtained before, which is negative.

If you get the blessing of this negative belief, you should also be able to become strong, but I'm afraid that your temperament will be affected and will be distorted unconsciously.

This makes Chen Heng fall into thinking.

"Does the so-called devil and the brave represent the power of different beliefs?"

Standing in his manor, Chen Heng couldn't help but flash this idea.

Judging from the current situation, the so-called power of belief can produce extraordinary effects in this world, and blessing on people can make people powerful.

So the so-called devil and the brave represent the power of different beliefs?

The devil picks up chaos, causes despair, and represents negative beliefs, while the brave represents hope, and represents the power of positive beliefs?

In that case, there seems to be no problem.

If the conjecture is correct, this small world is an experiment of others.

Since it's an experiment, we must test all the possibilities.

The devil and the brave represent different aspects and two possibilities of the power of faith.

Chen Heng felt that he had found part of the answer.

But what made him wonder was what kind of role the outsider, such as him, represented in the process of this experiment?

After all, judging from the current situation, it seems that this so-called experiment does not need the involvement of outsiders like him at all.

So what is the significance of these outsiders to enter the world and open the trial?

"In search of variables?"

In a flash, Chen Heng thought of a possibility.

Looking for variables, this may not be without.

As a wizard, Chen Heng needs to add some variables to his experiments to test different results.

So is it the same in this small world? The purpose of joining these outsiders is to add variables in order to seek different experimental results?

Chen Heng is not likely to reveal the answer to this question.

After all, he can't ask the small world decorator this question.

To be able to set up such a small world and take such a huge small world as the experimental site for testing, the strength of the setter in this world is undoubtedly very strong, even when Chen Heng was at his peak, he was far inferior to the other party.

In theory, the so-called true monarch can open up a secret place, but the secret place opened up is totally different from the normal world, and it is even different from the huge small world in front of him.

The other party can do this kind of thing, obviously is no longer the real gentleman can compare.

In the face of such a big man, Chen Heng felt that it was better not to really see each other.

Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be cool to meet.

After sitting in the manor for a period of time, there were obvious changes around.The most obvious change was that there was less laughter from the children around, even the old housekeeper's face became more serious, and the guards around were more serious, holding their weapons tightly at any time.

The change of surrounding atmosphere is very obvious.

Looking at this scene, Chen Heng nodded.

"Almost..."

sitting up from a piece of grass, he looked forward, his face was calm, and the thought flashed in his heart.

In the following days, the surrounding situation changed again.

Inside the town, a large number of mercenaries suddenly emerged. In the eyes of a group of people led by the local mayor, they directly attacked them.

Chen Heng intervened after all.

Under his command, a large number of mercenaries directly sent out and directly destroyed the forces around the mayor.

Subsequently, a large amount of food was taken out to relieve the victims.

With a steady stream of food being taken out, the atmosphere of tension and despair suddenly became clear.

The whole town was calm again, and the surrounding area gradually returned to normal.

The only change is that the local principal has changed.

But apart from those guys who are already underground, who cares?

Anyway, Chen Heng doesn't care.

In addition to food relief, he sent people to publicize among the victims. In a short time, the name of ED Dowell resounded throughout the town.

When walking on the road, all the victims will show gratitude on their faces, and express their heartfelt gratitude to the person who brings them hope and new life.

After all, it is to give hope in crisis. No matter how mean and ungrateful people are, they will always be grateful.

Of course, this is destined to be temporary.

In less than half a year at most, this gratitude will completely dissipate, and Chen Heng's influence will be greatly weakened.

Unless, he can continue to bring benefits to this group of people, otherwise the result must be forgotten.

However, Chen Heng himself does not care about this.

What he wanted was just the force of pure faith produced by the transition from despair to hope.

As he had thought before, when he got these victims out of despair, the power of faith generated by the desire for survival and hope was extremely pure and bright.

This is the power of pure faith, and because of the number of people, it is also very large.

It's not polite to say that although the strength of this dying blessing can't match Chen Heng's own strength, it can also make his own strength increase a lot.

On the basis of his official wizard, it is quite considerable.

This also can't help but let Chen Heng heart rise an idea.

The power of belief of a small town alone has such power. What about a city, a country, or even most of the world?

How powerful is the power that can be generated at that time?

At the moment, Chen Heng can't help but flash this idea.

However, he did not attach importance to this force.

Although the power of faith is strong enough, it is not its own.

When the power of belief is given blessing, it will have enough power, but once the power of belief disappears, it will be hit back to the prototype immediately.

There are too many constraints on this force, and there are too many ways to operate it.

People's reason will be limited by their own understanding, so it will be manipulated by people at a higher level.

If Chen Heng is his own enemy, then he has too many ways to make him lose the power of faith.

It's very easy for his supporters to lose their trust and gratitude, whether it's killing them directly or framing them up.

Therefore, this force is doomed to be unable to rely on and can only be used and observed.

Chen Heng is just holding the idea of observation at the moment.

......

"there's another town ahead."

A group of people rode along the deserted path.

The middle-aged man looked at the young man on the other side and said, "in a little while, we'll be there."

"Good."

Next to the middle-aged man, the young man sat on the horse, looking a little pale.

If you look at it carefully, you can see that the youth is not very old, but they are only in their early twenties, and their eyebrows are still young.

He looked very handsome. He was full of heroism. Now he had a worried look on his face. He seemed to be worried.

"We have to do it as soon as possible!"

Galloping on the road, the young man gasped, then said: "the evil disaster broke out, and the town in front should be trapped now."

"We have to get to the rescue as soon as possible."

"But... Your body..."

looking at the young man, the middle-aged man's face showed hesitation: "can you hold it?""I'm fine."

The young man shook his head. Although his face was pale, he had a strong and resolute color: "if we are a little late, more innocent people will suffer from the invasion of demons."

"For this reason, we should as soon as possible..."

he said, his face even paler as he spoke.

Looking at the young man's appearance, the middle-aged man hesitated, but he could only sigh and nod, saying nothing more.

They went all the way and soon came to the town ahead.

But to their surprise, the town looked very peaceful.

Outside the town, there are traces of blood, on which there is dry blood, but it has dried up.

There are some guards around, and they are seriously patrolling the neighborhood.

It seems that there are some traces of demons around, but most of them are corpses, and there are no living demons left.

"This is..."

looking at this scene, the young and middle-aged men were stunned and were particularly surprised.

They rushed all the way here, originally wanted to come here to rescue.

But it seems that there is no need for rescue.

"It's well protected here."

Looking at the town ahead, the middle-aged man had some accidents.

"Let's go in and have a look."

The young man nodded and said, "I don't know who protected these innocent people under the evil disaster."

The front, see two young people come, there are guards to cross examine.

"Are you the ones who have come to answer the call?"

"In response to the call?"

Young two people came to some interest: "what conscription."

"Mr. ade is recruiting guards to launch an encirclement and suppression of the nearby demons."

The guard said, "those who go to recruit can get rich rewards. Are you here to respond to the call?"

He saw that both of them were wearing weapons and armor, so he asked.

"Encircle and suppress the demons."

Listening to these words, the young man's face suddenly awed: "it doesn't matter what the reward is, but if you want to encircle and suppress the demons, please count me in!"

No bounty, just to encircle the demons?

And this kind of fool?

The guard subconsciously wanted to make a mockery, but he just looked at the other side's appearance, looked at the other side's serious face, but finally stopped.

In front of him, there seems to be some power that can move people's hearts. When people look at him, they can't help feeling moved and deeply agree with each other's words.

What the other party said may be hypocritical if it is said in other people's eyes, but if it is said in this people's eyes, it seems very serious, which makes people feel awed.

Inexplicably, the guard raised some respect in his heart, didn't say anything, just nodded, and then turned to take them away.

People around took a look and didn't say anything.

During this period of time, with the order of conscription issued, many mercenaries around came to join the ranks of the demons.

In this context, the emergence of the two young people does not appear abrupt, did not cause other people's accidents.

Then they walked into the town.

The surrounding scenery showed.

Around the town, after a period of renovation, the chaos caused by the previous period has subsided. Although there are still some traces, they are basically intact.
